Former India captain Sunil Gavaskar, who was behind the microphones as commentator too reprimand Singh for overstepping frequently.

“As a professional, you can’t be doing this. We often hear that today’s players say, things aren’t in our control. Not bowling no ball is in your control. What happens after you deliver the ball, what the batsman does, is another thing. Not bowling a no ball is definitely in your control,” Gavaskar said during his commentary.
